| Long rally with Meridell end in draw. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| Nice game, looks like from the two guys I played so far there's some good competition in here. What happens with draws in the tournament? Rematch? |
| yep |
|
Mehrkt said: tbh the results could be posted here instead of pm'd to you, i doubt this thread will get so active that the results would be hard to find it's easier for me if results are pmd to me as I'll be putting results in the second post you can post in game if you want to as well JOAOAA said: JOAOAA said: I was thinking this a second ago and my answer answer is yes but I don't want any pms about the victory until the timer starts cause I'd like to prepare myself and sort my pms so I don't get flooded or anything |

| It has begun, yay! Important question: How do you take a screenshot? I've looked it up, but I don't really understand the sites that explained it. I'm really terrible with computers, so if anyone could explain it, I'd be really grateful. EDIT: I found out how to make the screen shot, put it in paint etc. How do you upload it to MAL? |

| I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die. |
| Would the side be random for a rematch or would it deliberately be the opposite sides? I love this tactics trainer! Some of the solutions for the harder puzzles are just completely insane. Oh obviously I should have sacrificed a queen to that pawn so that I could pin the king with a bishop three turns later, who wouldn't think of that :o Suna_Kujira said: I found out how to make the screen shot, put it in paint etc. How do you upload it to MAL? Just upload it to tinypic or imgur or one of those sites, right click picture, copy url and then use the (img)url(/img) with square brackets bbc code. |
| Now you're wondering if there's white text in any of my other posts. Over there, I'm everywhere. I know that. |
| Thank you! Also, if anyone wants to practice a bit before the tournament starts: http://lichess.org/R1a1KHJw |

| Why do we have to play our games with time control? (45 minutes limit) My schedule is kinda packed at the moment, and it would be much easier, if I knew I could just play my moves whenever I have time. People can still play their games in 1 sitting, if that's what they want. But the way it is now, you have to actually set aside time in your schedule for when you want to play your game. |

I agree with zymf here if we have 45 minutes for each turn i'll probably lose cuz i have to do something else at some point |

With both players running down the clock and a game of 60 moves, that's still only 95 mins total. I'm sure you can set out a time of <2 hours at least once in a week. |

It's not that I don't have 2 hours of sparetime, it's just that if I actually have to decide with my opponent on when to play our game. And if for instance we agree to play wednesday at 12 am, I can't make any other plans for wednesday 12 am. But I can see why some people would rather play the game fast and thus prevent players from stalling. So I will shut up now :P @itami-chan: r yo ready to get your ass kicked >:D |
